Paulo Coelho's status: "A Life without a cause is a life without an effect."
***
A Life Without A Cause Is a Life Without an Effect
A speck of dust in an abandoned space
Canned spinach rusting in my pantry
One contract, one loan, one move from being tossed
Formalities in the midst of philosophy
Fashionable clothes prancing in solidarity
Against the backdrop of genius
A campaign ad laced with arsenic
Negative rhetoric reverberating in stadiums
Bounding from mouths of men who never threw a ball
An impersonal card
An oxidized penny trampled and disregarded,
Pressed into asphalt, nostalgic for its luster.
